Stripe Compliance Made Easy & Even More Pricing Flexibility
Last updated on
Did you know that Stripe can suspend your ability to accept payments if your account verification isn’t up-to-date?
Here’s a frightening thought: What if your Stripe account got restricted right in the middle of your biggest sales day because you missed an important verification deadline?
Don’t think it can happen to you? Just check your Stripe dashboard right now. There might be pending tasks you didn’t even know about. Every day you delay completing these requirements puts your payment processing at risk.
Studies show that payment processing interruptions can cost businesses thousands in lost revenue, not to mention damaged customer relationships. But who has time to constantly log into Stripe to check for new account requirements?
That’s why I’m excited to announce our latest updates to WP Simple Pay that put you back in control of your payments!
Today, we’re introducing three powerful new features that will transform how you manage payments on WordPress and keep your Stripe account active:
✔️ In-Plugin Stripe Account Notifications
✔️ Required Price Options for Add-Ons & Fees
✔️ Custom Amount Maximums
Let me break down what this means for your business…
In-Plugin Stripe Account Notifications: Your Account Health Monitor
First, our new In-Plugin Stripe Account Notifications feature acts like your personal payment guardian.
Instead of constantly logging into Stripe, you’ll get instant notifications right in your WordPress dashboard if there’s an issue with your account. Think of it as your early warning system for payment problems.
The tasks are displayed on the page and will notify you about things like:
✅ Risk interventions requiring immediate attention
✅ Requirements for payment processing
✅ Capability status and requirements
✅ Account verification needs
✅ Compliance updates and necessary documentation
Required Price Options for Add-Ons, Fees, & More
Next, we’ve improved how you can structure your pricing with Required Price Options.
Building on our powerful Purchase Mode feature that allows customers to purchase multiple line-items in one transaction, we’re taking pricing flexibility to the next level.
Required Price Options allow you to designate specific line items as mandatory on any payment form, enabling you to design complex pricing scenarios, like:
✅ Adding mandatory support fees to your subscription services
✅ Including required add-ons to bookings
✅ Automatically attaching processing fees to any purchase
✅ Creating one-time setup fees for new customers
Build Sustainable Revenue with Support Fees
Let’s talk about why adding a required support fee to your subscription forms is a game-changer.
Imagine you’re selling a SaaS product at $49/month. Without built-in support fees, you’re either absorbing support costs into your base price or trying to upsell support separately, complicating your sales process.
Now, you can easily attach a required monthly support fee to your subscriptions. This means your base product price stays competitive, while support costs are transparent to subscribers.
The best part? Customers appreciate the clear communication, and you ensure every subscription includes the support needed for customer success.
It’s a win-win that helps you build a more sustainable business.
Custom Amount Maximums: Enhanced Control and Security
Worried about fraudulent payments or staying compliant with regulatory donation limits?
Our new Custom Amount Maximums feature gives you complete control over payment limits.
It’s perfect for:
✅ Setting regulatory-compliant donation limits
✅ Preventing gift card fraud
✅ Protecting against accidental overpayments
Setting up custom amount maximums is incredibly easy using the payment form builder.
Keep Your Stripe Payments Flowing
Stripe Account Notifications, Required Price Options, and Custom Amount Maximums are available now to help you grow your business.
While other payment plugins leave you in the dark about account issues or force you to build complex workarounds for pricing structures, WP Simple Pay gives you everything you need in one seamless package.
Think about it: How much time could you save by not having to constantly check your Stripe account? How many more sales could you make with optimized pricing structures?
